Light Help

Post by Lynx »

Hi, I'm looking for a new light. My current situation means I am a bit restricted on what i can use until i get a work bench sorted. I'm currently using the light in the link below which is good because I can move it and it's a flexi one and also it's a clip on which works well for my current situation but it isn't very bright. Does anyone have any suggestions? I've been looking on Amazon.

Hi Lynx,
A lot of us use these 3 tube work lights at 57 quid

However as I'v gotten older I wish I had bought the led version 104 pounds

However they now have a even better one at 197 pounds

Two different mounts are available...a desk clamp and a screwed bracket. Which is good for walls. You might have noticed that they can get pretty pricey, unfortunately it really is a case of getting what you pay for with lighting. Those new batten ( https://www.discountlighting.com.au/int ... led-batten ) led lights can be really good as a general lighting solution, but for a work light you can't beat those 3 I have shown. Also they are really the only ones available of that type, with the daylight lighting, strength of light and a robust arm suspension system.
